Package: lintian Version: 2.5.30+deb8u4 Severity: normal Hi, this bug is related to: https://bugs.debian.org/711207. An analysis of https://lintian.debian.org/tags/spelling-error-in-binary.html shows that the common spelling mistakes of 'the' are:
tEh 10 teh 78 tEH 1090 I recommend ignoring 'tEH' since it is arguably a false positive. It can be also argued that 'tEh' is a mishit, but I leave it to you. 'teh' on the other hand looks like a genuine mistake (no shift needed). I attach a patch for Lintian (not tested).
